Me not knowing specifics of a single other homicide out of those hundreds is proving my point.

Why would I know details about specific homicides on the opposite side of the country to me? The news didn't have it on the front page. Major politicians didn't tweet about them. The only reason I know about this one is because the news isn't treating this one the same as the rest and every national us news site has it plastered on the front page.

I want to know about this one equally as much as others like it that happened to less rich ppl.
